The action Groundhog Day. I liked both, and Retroactive, Palm Springs, Map of Tiny Perfect Things, Meet Cute, and Stargate SG-1 S04E06 "Window of Opportunity". Who invented the time loop plot the first time around?
Check out the similarly plotted Star Trek TNG S05E18 "Cause and Effect", and its equivalent Outer Limits 1995 S05E16 "Deja vu".

The Map of Tiny Perfect Things was better than I expected. I love the song from its soundtrack, 1992 by The Bruises. I wish there was more to the song, but it is just soundtrack music.
There is a fantasy Groundhog Day too, Princess Cursed in Time. After decades of mediocre fairytales, finally something that rivals Tre nøtter til Askepott I can recommend to international viewers. It's on the German KiKA channel today at 12 (they import our mediocre fairytales too, though).
You should check out Arq on Netflix.
